About DeAnn
Dr. DeAnn Simon uses a client-centered approach to guide people through stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, and relationship concerns. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia with 14 years of experience.
Her style is warm and interactive and she focuses on building respect and compassion in sessions. Dr. Simon helps people tackle practical problems and emotional pain step by step.
She draws on cognitive behavioral strategies to help clients notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
How DeAnn works
Mindfulness techniques are added when people need tools to manage racing thoughts or chronic stress. Motivational interviewing is used to build readiness for change and clarify what matters most to each person. People come for many reasons - parenting strain, career stress, grief, addictions, sleep problems, anger, or life transitions.
Dr. Simon also supports concerns related to trauma and post-traumatic stress, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and mood disorders. She works with worries that affect day-to-day functioning and relationships.
Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps. Conversations include skill-building, gentle challenge, and time to reflect on personal stories and values. The work is collaborative so clients help shape the pace and focus.
Dr. Simon blends short-term strategies with deeper exploration when needed. She encourages small, manageable changes and checks in on progress.
If someone is ready to begin, she supports the first steps toward change.

Online support options
Approaches that guide online sessions
Dr. Simon commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy to focus on each person’s experience and priorities. This approach centers the conversation on what matters to the individual and helps build a trusting, collaborative relationship.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and teach concrete skills to manage anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and stress. CBT sessions often include simple exercises and homework to practice between meetings.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Dr. Simon will talk with each person about goals and preferences and adjust methods as needed. The process is collaborative so clients help decide whether to emphasize skills, mindfulness, or deeper story work.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls let the therapist and client use visual cues and longer conversations. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for quick updates, ongoing support between sessions, or when someone prefers writing to talking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into daily routines and maintain continuity of care.
